The ELF Convention (European Locksmith Federation Convention) returns in spring 2025, hosted this year in Spain. This year, the most important international event dedicated to the world of high security will once again welcome thousands of locksmiths, industry professionals and manufacturers from all over the world for an outstanding opportunity for training and discussion.
The event is organised by the European Locksmiths' Federation, an association founded in Helsinki in 1984 that represents an entity for national locksmith associations and that, since its foundation, has been involved in promoting cooperation between different professionals at an international level.
The fair will take place from 8 to 10 May in the city of Torremolinos, on the Costa del Sol, and has been organised with the support and collaboration of APECS, the Association of Lock and Security Professionals in Spain.
Like every year, we Mottura will be present among the exhibitors to present our bestselling products and latest innovations.
One of our most outstanding products are our Champions® Euro-profile cylinder platforms, the result of our decades of experience in the world of high security cylinders and equipped with anti-picking, anti-bumping, anti-snap and anti-tracing technologies to guarantee maximum protection against any break-in attempt.
Together with the Champions cylinders, the Defenders®, our iconic high-security armoured protectors, are a must. Our range includes not only traditional mechanical models, but also magnetic Defenders, an innovation that raises the level of cylinder and lock protection to the highest level, not only against traditional attack attempts, but also against acid attacks.
On display, locksmiths will also find our Series 82 locks for armoured doors, with gear mechanism and security trap that increase the level of inviolability of the door, and the new bTECHNOLOGY range, Mottura's smart security evolution.
Mottura's bTECHNOLOGY ecosystem, which is fully controllable via the bMOTTURA app, is made up of the bNOVA and bBLOCK smart locks, the bMOTO motorised knob and accessories that enable easy and secure keyless access, adapting to every need. At ELF 2025 you will also be able to see live the latest addition to the bTECHNOLOGY family, the bTAG Bluetooth transponder reader, premiered this April and available on the market in the coming months.
We look forward to seeing you at booth 21.
The range of Champions® security cylinders includes different cylinder models, each of which is characterized by particular technical qualities, different types of allowed key duplication and the numerous new applicable functions.
Each set of keys, sealed at the origin, is accompanied by the personal ownership card to be showed while requesting key duplicates.
The cylinders are divided into Silver Series (C10 and PRO/Modular), Gold Series (C28PLUS, C39 and CP6) and Platinum Series (C55 and C3D). All models have common safety features; furthermore, each cylinder is characterized by different mechanical systems, increasing the level of security, or in combination with each other to increase the level of complexity of the cylinder itself.
All Champions® Europrofile security cylinders are certified according to the UNI EN 1303 standard at the highest achievable levels, including resistance to Bumping, Picking and Tracing manipulation techniques.
Defenders® are armoured door protections that defend cylinders against break-in attempts such as drilling, bumping, picking, cylinder extraction and acid attacks.
They are secured directly to the lock by means of special screws and holes, and are characteristically shaped to prevent break-in attempts by means of iron pipes. They are divided into different categories (mechanical, magnetic, electronic) and are available in numerous finishes to suit every type of door.
All Mottura Defenders® have been tested according to UNI EN 1906 and have passed the required tests to the maximum grade.
